One player who Chelsea are reportedly looking to part ways with this summer is actually getting himself ready to feature for the new manager next season.
It was announced that Enzo Maresca had been selected as the replacement for Mauricio Pochettino, after the Argentine completed just one season at the helm at Stamford Bridge.
The decision was made pretty swiftly, and the long contract they have handed the Italian suggests there is plenty of faith in him to take the project into the future.
A lot of talk has already begun over what the squad will look like when their season gets underway with the visit of Manchester City to Stamford Bridge for the first game of the campaign.
One player who has been strongly reported to be out of favour with those up top is Raheem Sterling, who is currently the highest earning player in the first team squad.
Raheem Sterling planning to play for Maresca
According to The Athletic, the Blues have accepted the fact that his wages make it very difficult to move him on, and that they will struggle to find a club to take him off their hands.
It also went on to state that the player, who joined for £50m just less than two years ago, was actually already preparing for pre-season under the new manager.
Chelsea want to sign Michael Olise
It remains to be seen if the Blues complete a deal to sign another winger this summer, with Michael Olise remaining firmly at the top of their list of targets.
The Frenchman normally features on a different side of the attack to Sterling, however the positions are taken up by a number of top young players who there is a lot of faith in.
With him reportedly looking to stay at the height of European football, it may well be another campaign at Stamford Bridge for the former City man.
